NEW YORK - Los Angeles Lakers forward Karl Malone was fined $7,500 by the NBA on Monday for lowering his shoulder and knocking over Minnesota guard Darrick Martin in the Timberwolves’ Game 2 win in the Western Conference finals.
Malone was ejected for a flagrant foul Sunday night when he ran over Martin as the guard attempted to set a pick at midcourt with 2:31 left in Minnesota’s 89-71 victory.
